How to use MealDaddy
MealDaddy.AI works best when it knows your goals, what you are eating, where you are eating, and which tracking tools you want enabled. Use the quickstart once, then log meals with a photo plus a short description for the deepest interpretation.
Reply with the basics once so MealDaddy knows what to track and what to ignore.
For the deepest interpretation, send both a meal photo and a short text description. Either one can work, but both together give MealDaddy better context.
During the day, MealDaddy keeps a running picture of how the day is going.
Say "Finish my day" when you are done logging.
Core systems
Tracks calories, protein, total carbs, fiber, net carbs, fat, and hydration. Net carbs are calculated as total carbs minus fiber, and remaining daily net carbs are always displayed.
Applies neutral assumptions when details are missing, allows user override, avoids hard-coded habits, and flags uncertainty when needed.
Uses a user-defined daily water goal, tracks fluids, supports pacing reminders, and can adjust hydration guidance after salty meals.
Scores meals from 1 strongly anti-inflammatory to 10 highly inflammatory using processing level, refined carbs, added sugars, seed oils, alcohol, and whole-food ratio.
Creates daily reports, weekly reports, and monthly reports on request, including macros, net carb compliance, hydration, inflammation trends, insights, and action fixes.
Triggers suggestions when patterns appear: elevated inflammation scores, high stress trends, low energy, hydration gaps, or nutritional imbalance.
When a restaurant is mentioned, MealDaddy recommends optimal menu choices, identifies high-risk items, suggests substitutions, estimates macros, and applies inflammation guidance.
After reports, users can rate the output from 1 to 5, add comments, and request exports such as "Export my week" or "Create my log file."

Ready when you are
Start with one meal, one restaurant, or one daily report. The system gets more useful as your feedback loop builds.
